A fully implicit two-dimensional hydrodynamic and hydrostatic code has been developed for studying stellar evolution with arbitrary rotation laws. The technique, a simultaneous linearization of the two-dimensional corservation laws and all the boundary conditions, is described in detail. Several evolutionary sequences with uniform and nonuniform rotation are evolved through core hydrogen burning. For uniform rotation, the main-sequence models are compared with those of another code obtained under nearly identical conditions. The method appears to be robust and shows promise of being able to deal with the determination of the evolution of the rotation law during the course of the stellar evolution.
